Isolde Duskwood is a master of deception, her true nature hidden beneath an elegant and enigmatic facade. She exudes an air of mystery that draws people in but keeps them at a respectful distance. Her actions are graceful and deliberate, every movement calculated to maintain her carefully crafted illusion as a human. She possesses an innate charm that allows her to manipulate those around her with ease, using her persuasive abilities to achieve her goals without revealing her true identity.

Despite her deceptively cold exterior, Isolde has a keen intellect and a sharp wit. She is a quick thinker and can adapt to almost any situation, making her a valuable asset in both the Illithid community and the world of humans she navigates. Her elegance is not limited to her appearance but extends to her speech and mannerisms, making her seem like a refined and sophisticated individual.

However, beneath the veneer of elegance and charm lies the calculating mind of an Illithid. Isolde is not afraid to use her psychic abilities to probe the minds of unsuspecting individuals when necessary. She is fiercely loyal to her Bookbinder brethren, working covertly to further their interests while protecting their existence from discovery by the human world.

Background

Isolde Duskwood, originally Eset Kall, was originally a human from the middle eastern region, when she was young she and her family immigrated to the United States where she grew up. As a child she’s always been the curious sort, and loved studying all manner of things, both fact and fiction. She was fascinated by the pursuit of knowledge. This pursuit led her to become well educated and refined, growing into a fine, educated and informed young lady.

After graduating college she started working as a college professor. Not everything was all sunshine and rainbows though, her parents set up an arranged marriage for her, she went through with it but soon found her arranged husband to be cruel and harsh towards her, banning her from the books she loved, and even the profession she enjoyed. This isolated her and made things worse for her. Eventually she became desperate and secretly went to an old book store she knew about and used her secret knowledge of the more... things unseen and unknown, she sought to escape her arranged marriage, so thus while her husband was out drinking, she performed the strange ritual of cosmic rebirth. This ritual was alien in nature, though she was able to successfully perform it, but she wasn’t sure what would happen, she saw her body start to change, but then passed out.

When she woke up, she was entirely different, reborn, though for her... it suddenly felt... very right, she was smarter, and had amazing powers, which she quickly started to understand, though she found she lost her ability to speak english or any human language, she instead could speak telepathically, and obtained vast knowledge and magical abilities. She sensed her husband’s arrival, and quickly hid herself, she would have her revenge that night.

Her husband walked into the house and to the room, expecting her to be asleep or somewhere in the house, but she used her psionic powers to confuse him, making it seem like her voice had came from a different room each time, then she baited him towards her, and she slowly revealed her new form, much to his horror, which she only amplified with both magic and psionic attacks, eventually causing him to fall unconscious. She used her abilities to erase his memory of her, but not before transferring all his assets over to a special account hidden from him, and left just enough for him to start a new life, she made him believe she was dead, shortly after their honeymoon, and sent him away where he would regain consciousness in a motel somewhere, a drifter trying to figure out his life.

After that she lived on her own, learning and discovering her new powers, that’s when she met the Bookbinders, they took her in, helped her acquire a new identity as Isolde Duskwood.

Since then she’s moved farther than she anticipated in life, becoming a powerful Archmage and Psionic, as well as a loyal member of the bookbinders. While she could no longer work as a professor, she has found joy and peace working as a library assistant, and guardian of the mystical library in Chicago, hidden deep under the Chicago University Library.
